Honestly, it's a tough class but I thought she was a good teacher with a good sense of humor.

All I have to say is if you can take this class with a different professor please do by far the worse professor I've had here at UCSB.

There is no way people are giving this women a good rating. I feel bad for everybody who had to go through all of that, honestly thinking about switching my major because she made me dread the class. Also one more thing to add DON'T EVER SHOW UP TO AN EXAM LATE, I saw her screaming at a dude who tried to sneak in which was funny but scary.

Where do I even start her slides aren't even helpful she should really highlight what is important because I feel like I'm reading a bunch of useless slides that don't even help for the exams. Two PQ's didn't really help surprisingly. Three TA's don't even know what they're doing and I don't even blame them. Her outfits are good though.

Beware of this professor she breezes through her slides and it's so annoying you basically have to teach yourself. None of the PQ's actually helped with the final exam in my opinion it was a bunch of complex problems. What irked me the most was when she said she took the exams that we had to do and she found them "easy".

OMG PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS WITH MISS ALISA, Jesus Christ she needs to get her slideshows together it's a BUNCH of information crammed into one slide. I like how she says "we don't have to memorize anything" but that's the complete opposite. You do have to teach yourself for this course so beware. Her BOB and her outfits are fye though!!!
